The Weyerhaeuser Brice Creek Wetland Mitigation Bank is a 636–acre site located in Craven County, North Carolina. The Bank is located within the Lower Neuse River Watershed and has Non-riparian Wetland Credits available for purchase.

North Carolina’s Neuse River Basin is one of only four river basins that lie entirely within the state’s boundaries. Historically, the Neuse River had it’s beginnings at the confluence of the Eno and Flat rivers; however, it now begins at the Falls Lake Reservoir Dam above Raleigh. The Neuse has a total length of 275 miles making it the longest river contained wholly within the boundaries of the state. At New Bern, the Neuse turns brackish and becomes a 40-mile-long tidal estuary that empties into the southern end of Pamlico Sound. The Neuse River Basin is North Carolina’s fourth largest basin and contains roughly one-sixth of the state’s population. Since it feeds one of the nation’s largest and most productive coastal estuaries, the Albemarle-Pamlico, the Neuse River has played a prominent role in the state’s fishing history. The Albemarle-Pamlico estuary system is a nursery for 90 percent of the commercial seafood species caught in North Carolina. The rivers and streams of the Neuse River Basin are spawning areas for shad, herring, striped bass and other fish species.

Protection of this valuable river system is of extreme importance to many different groups. Weyerhaeuser, through the development of Brice Creek Mitigation Bank, is dedicated to helping preserve this valuable river system.
